Acai Berry Information - Part 1 of 12

It is my privilege to offer you this report on the acai berry. Please read it thoroughly. After you have, feel free to contact me with any questions you might have.

What Is the Acai Berry?

Acai (pronounced ah-sigh-EE) is a palm tree that grows throughout the Amazon basin. The fruit of acai is small and dark purple or black in color, and is about the size of a grape. The berry is harvested naturally from the depths of the rain forests of Brazil by the people who have been using it for thousands of years.

The acai berry was recently listed on the Oprah Winfrey show as #1 of the top 10 superfoods for anti-aging. Her show featured Dr. Nicholas Perricone, author of the #1 New York Times best-seller, The Perricone Promise. He said the following:

It may seem odd to start this list of superfoods with one you've likely never even heard of. But studies have shown that this little berry is one of the most nutritious and powerful foods in the world.

Acai (ah-sigh-ee) is the high-energy berry of a special Amazon palm tree. Harvested in the rain forests of Brazil, acai tastes like a vibrant blend of berries and chocolate.

Hidden within its royal purple pigment is the magic that makes it nature's perfect energy fruit. Acai is packed full of antioxidants, amino acids, and essential fatty acids. Although acai may not be available in your local supermarket, you can find it, often in juice form.

In fact, studies show that açaí provides significantly more antioxidants than such well-respected foods as blueberries, oranges and even red wine. Perhaps more impressive is that the antioxidant concentration in the açaí fruit is five times higher than that of gingko biloba, the popular “brain boosting” herbal supplement that is renowned for its antioxidant properties.

Hi,I would first like to congratulate you for setting up a blog so beautiful.

A good blog requires regular posts. Period! But, with multiple websites and other errands to attend to, it becomes difficult at times to manage everything effectively.

I can help you with all your blog posts and writing assignments. I've been writing on health and fitness for the past 16 years and can share your workload for as little as $500 per month. Though my blog is not exactly in the same lines as yours, but being a health writer I can do this for you.

With the amount of cancer being diagnosed rapidly on the rise it only makes sense to research natural remedies that can help prevent or cure cancer. A study published in 2006 concluded that pure acai extract was effective at killing human cancers cells in a lab. This University of Florida study has prompted more research in the matter; but in the mean time it makes no sense to wait. Starting an Acai Berry regime today may substantially help to prevent cancer tomorrow.
